About John J. Jarstad, MD

I am a Mayo trained, board certified ophthalmologist specializing in laser and cataract surgery including “Bladeless Laser Cataract Surgery,” LASIK, Glaucoma and Cornea procedures. My research has helped to develop the first one-handed injector for lens implants (Passport), the Jarstad Cataract surgery marker, the Jarstad-Stone teaching head and cataract surgery simulator, a new instrument for cracking a dense cataract for use in developing countries (patent applied for), and a less expensive treatment for keratoconus using high dose dietary riboflavin and natural UV light.
